Note that for gmail you need to tell google to allow insecure apps. This is because otherwise gmail doesn't really allow regular SMTP anymore. I repeat, by default gmail does NOT support standard SMTP. I've never used amazon, but could it be that you need to specify your hostname? Some SMTP servers require this for it to work as otherwise it will use localhost. Try setting mail.settings.hostname to the domain you will be sending emails as.
